CSG-2<\/h2>\n

COSMO-SkyMed 2 (CSG-2) is set to launch from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on January 30 at 6:11 p.m. ET. The Falcon 9 will carry an Earth-observing satellite from the Italian Space Agency into a sun-synchronous orbit. It will join the initial CSG-1 satellite in orbit providing data to civilian and military customers. This mission will feature an RTLS landing, so those in the vicinity of Cape Canaveral can expect to hear sonic booms as the booster lands just a few minutes after launch.<\/p>\n

Falcon Heavy booster finds a new life<\/h3>\n

The booster supporting this mission is B1052-3. This has never before flown on a Falcon 9 mission, having instead supported two Falcon Heavy flights as a side booster. The side-core flew on Arabsat 6A and STP-2. Because of its Falcon Heavy origin, the booster lacks the standard Falcon 9 logo seen high up on most boosters.<\/p>\n
